I can’t stand Max, but I imagine this is how people felt about Senna in 1990 when crashing Prost to win the WDC. We’ll look back at this season as one of the best for sure.
I started watching f1 half way through this season, I remember watching this race live as I was working, I was busy cooking and stopped for a good 10 minutes, I was in disbelief with what was happening, being shouted at by everyone around me to get on with my job, but I couldn’t take my eyes off what was happening, I wanted Lewis to win, but to see this live was worth every bit of abuse 😂 This race made me fall in love with the sport, I’ll never forget this moment. One of the greatest memories I’ll cherish for the rest of my life. In my eyes both Lewis and max turned this sport I saw as average, into something I cannot get enough off. Pure fucking cinema.
Totally agree! Here in the Netherlands, most fans who watch longtime F1, halfway the season said: wouldn't it be great if they were equal on points in the last race and it would be decided in the last lap. I should have put money on that..... Watching for so many years, this was the most exciting season ever because of Max ánd Lewis.
Honestly my favourite onboard telemetry, not only you can see how cautious hamilton is being anyways but the skill it takes to back someone up without just getting straight up passed is incredible. Max should be better to checo after all this man
Max even bought him a honda car if im not mistaken. Then Monaco happened where Checo purposely crashed in qualifying to secure P1, but I heard they already made up now.
@@HamasakiFanz Thing is he didn’t secure P1 but P3, right behind the two Ferraris. I might be biased cus I like him, but I don’t think someone would purposely crash to secure an inferior position, which makes me believe he didn’t purposely crash
It's like watching a masterclass in team dynamics. Perez's move against Hamilton wasn't just racing, it was high-stakes, high-skill strategy playing out at 200mph. Its easy to forget these moments considering Checo's recent struggles on the track. What a season 2021 was 🏎💥
to be fair completely different situations. Checo here saved up his battery for many laps before and threw away his own race just to back up hamilton while Ocon had to take care of himself as well and was on dead tires in a much worse car.
As a Verstappen fan witnessing this was epic. I was jumping from the couch from excitement. Till this day I still regret Max didn't pay Checo back in Brazil. 😢
Perez was the ultimate team player in this race and he deserves so much respect regardless of how he’s performed this year. If he never gets a world title he will still definitely go down as one of the best in my eyes
Why everyone's forget about Giovinazzi's VSC? I know Alfa Romeo was a disaster in 2021, but Hamilton had a chance there and Mercedes did a big Ferrari by ignoring it.
@@the1stmetalhead A bit more,but still half the time compared to normal pitstop (I think it was between 11 and 13 seconds for Abu Dhabi), even falling behind Verstappen,Hamilton had the pace and time to take the lead back (no mistakes from Lewis that night, and the W12 had a great setup for that track).
I root for Checo since he got P1 in pink F1 car then again in this incident. I still wish him the best no matter where he goes. Never thought he's my real fav driver along with Kimi. Please bounce back man.
01:59 Was that "Press and hold turn 12?" Sounds like it, but the radio wasn't very clear and English is not my native language, so I could be wrong. I had my doubt though, because the overtake button should be used after turn 14, not turn 12 which is the first of the 3 slow corners of T12-14. T14 is the one followed by a short straight.
He seems to be struggling with the new gen car. Ever since Max beat him starting from ninth when Perez was on pole in Miami, it's just been one big downward spiral as I think all of his confidence he could challenge for a title was destroyed
@@Baguenaudeur Well..he gave them everything that he was hired for. He was clearly hired as a second driver to support Max winning the title. Would it have been better to just let him sit out of F1 like he was going to before they scooped him up?
@@Baguenaudeur mate what you on about Horner and the team has been nothing but supportive in what has been unacceptable form he's shown this season in that car. They've never publicly spoken against him and at every opportunity where media and fans alike have placed scrutiny over whether he'll have a seat for next season not once has the team said anything to make him feel like he's on his way out. His issues are his own doing, he was the one put pressure on himself by publicly declaring to the media he could challenge Max for the title. He underestimated Max's early struggles with the car and overestimated his own performance relative to Max. It turns out Checo's performance ceiling is much lower than Max's able to achieve which was obvious to anyone other than Checo. All Checo had to do is keep getting podiums throughout the season, qualify in the front two rows and his seat would be his for as long as he kept delivering those performances. He had ambition beyond his own ability and Max as completely buried any idea of him ever challenging him for a title in the same car.
It was a very disappointing end to such a good season. Ruined by the FIA where the racing could have been amazing if they didn’t unlap those cars. Not even a Hamilton fan
hardly! legends fight to win races not to ruin other people races. Hamilton will always be one of the greatest (if not the greatest) to ever do it. Nobody will remember Perez in 20 years time.
Epic driving by Checo and epic team work. Red Bull really deserved that bit of luck at the end of the race, and Checo made it possible to convert that into a race win and therefore the Championship win for Max.
@vladaltreilea1431 You speak about how Mercedes treated Bottas, but you should speak about how Hamilton treated him. There was a race (I think Hungary) where Bottas let him pass for attack the driver in front of them, and after Lewis also didn't manage to pass, he gave the position back to Valtteri. I'm pretty sure Lewis would have let him pass for the points if Valtteri needed them.
Nope. He is being a good worker. That is what he is being paid for. He is doing his job, bacause like all working areas if you do not produce, someone else will be brought in and get your job. He is being a good employee and being paid more handsomely than most of us. So he should be grateful for having this job.
Man this was sooo epic; Perez gives everything to defend against Lewis, and then let Max pass to get another chance to fight once again with Lewis for that P1.. But Max a year later couldn't give even a simple 6th place to him.. hope he gets lucky this 2 finals race and get that 2nd place for be a 1-2 for rb
@yugarten8523 well I understand the comparison, when Checo did what he did in Monaco, no tittle was decided. Had things gone bad for RB or Max in 2022 (instead of Ferrari) that could have affected Max in a big way. Checo tried to screw Max, and it ended up with just Max screwing Checo. Also, even if Max had let him through in Brazil, Checo would still have been 3rd in the championship
@@martimxavier9690he still owed checo a big one and never repaid it. I understand people are all up the great white hope in max but the dude is a proper cry baby diva. Who's daddy doesn't even let red bull give his team mate an equal car. Checos car has been compromised many times. Watch you will see checo saying this after he leaves red bull 💯
It really isn't peak Perez - his first win for Racing Point, his amazing win for Red Bull at Singapore, or his tight win at Baku over Max are peak Perez. But this was definitely incredible defensive driving.
I remember this defensive action very well. A little over the limit in my opinion, especially in the last sector where Checo literally parked the car in some corners. I think Max should always remember this moment when he is tempted to be a little harsh on his teammate. His first and most memorable WDC title came (also) thanks to this fantastic work by Perez.
Breaking Point for me (apart from Brazil 22) was Austria this season. The team allowed Max to have another Pit Stop without any pressure just to snatch fastest lap from checo, WHO would have needed the points ..
man that has to be the best defending in history, to defend against Hamilton in that rocket ship like this wow, this couple of laps guaranteed checo extra 3 years at Redbull, i just wish he drove the same level later on
Checo has so many skills - minister of defense, tire management, good team partner, manage his words on media etc. If provided a FAST CAR, but RB failed to do so for 2024*
Max was the one fighting for the WC so as a team member pretty obvious and true that Checo was ordered !!!!! to help Max Next year Checo tricked Max in Monaco at qualify with a stupid crash so Max had to abort his purple lap and THAT my friend was the reason for a payback in Brasil 2022
@@rodynote 1. Max already won the Championship 2 races prior to Brazil 2. Checo was in a tight battle for p2 in the championship with Leclerc, which he ended up losing no doubt partly because of this 3. Max was given multiple team orders to let checo by but he refused Max most likely cost Redbull a position in the drivers championship worth Millions of Dollars though his own immaturity and arrogance Youre coping so hard you cant even remember half of what happened Also if you ask me if Max really did that as “payback” for Monaco thats a pretty good indicator of poor character. How can you be so sour and self absorbed over that incident that you fuck over your entire team to get retribution 6 months after it happened. Verstappen may be a good racer but hes an extremely poor character. He can act all nice in interviews with his 15 pr managers in the background but when the adrenaline is pumping the real Verstappen comes out

@@Cal3000 , Lewis should be grateful for having a chance for the championship at the last race. It should have been decided way earlier. Remember Baku and Silverstone for example?
@@KJ28554 In your mind Spain, Imola and Brazil appear to be lucky escapes for Lewis not knowing that these F1 drivers have A LOT more awareness than you do. To you, they're like an algorithm running 1 million predictions each second and the closer they get to the corner the more scenarios they eliminate until they arrive at the turning-in point and they decide where to place the car relative to the opponent. Max shoved Lewis wide in Brazil but Hamilton saw it coming all the way, as it wasn't a drastic lock-up or anything. Lewis had plenty of time to avoid collision and Max wasn't worried about that too. Because, importantly, Max still turned the corner, he didn't just straight-line it. It looks more spectacular for the clueless fans, so stop projecting your overwhelmed mind onto the driver's abilities
@@KJ28554 monza wasnt even max's fault. saudi was a hige miscommunication by the FIA. brazil, like the guy above me said, wasnt that big of a deal at all. idk what happened in spain and imola at all. at this point ur just making up incidents that never happened.
One of the best time wasting/defensive laps in F1 history. Have to say though at 3:15 I’m surprised Perez didn’t dive back down the inside to interfere even more with Hamilton.
I think RB told him something in the lines: "Whatever it takes EXCEPT contact". Perez played it extremely clean. Also, it would have been a career ending move if Perez somehow ended crashing into Ham to give Max the win. Look what happened to Masi and he didn't even do it on purpose.
@@anameyoucantremember I see your point but I don’t mean as a “take Hamilton out move” he could’ve legitimately carried on the fight and even got Max directly involved.
I've always wondered the same, but I think the radio message 'Max is right on his tail' made him think he had done enough. Had he made another move, he could have held Lewis at the apex to ensure Max got DRS on Lewis.
Checo could see that Lewis was well past him and would take the apex, to under brake and put his car there would have caused a crash. Checo put up an incredible defence but everything he did upto that point was clean racing despite Lewis's whiny complaint about dangerous driving. To cause an intentional crash was a line Checo would have refused to cross. He did everything he could fairly and had he been a few metres further ahead I'm sure he would have parked on the apex, but he wasn't so he dropped back to do what he could for Max. What surprised me is that he didn't dab the brakes early in the straight to deny Lewis the DRS and give Max the earlier activation, potentially allowing him to get the 2nd from Lewis, but hindsight is a wonderful thing.
Im convinced if Bottas didnt take the piss in 2021 Lewis wouldve won the thing. It was 1 on 2 all year for Hamilton. Without a teamate youre always at a disatvantage strategy wise
3:13 here is the perfect example of slipstream effect. Listen to the engine reving as Checo crosses inside Lewis slipstream and gives him a few extra kph
This is one of the dirtiest examples of driving I've seen go unpunished in modern F1. He had no intention to race Hamilton for position and was only forcing him to avoid crashing every corner. If you want to see clean, look at Alonso in Hungary.
Great overview of this critical moment in Maxs career...its no wonder RB have given Checo alot of leeway considering his second half performance this year 😅
Between the time lost with Perez and Mercedes doing a Ferrari during Giovinazzi's VSC (Hamilton telling them that was dangerous to keep him on track, and Bono response was a simple"we want to keep track position", Bono released his inner Xavi), Hamilton was on alone and on his own against a team that used everything at hand, every pit window and both drivers if possible. And as the cherry on top,just like in France that very same year, Bottas reaction to Hamilton loosing the race was "this was a 2 pitstop race",they got Ferrari treatment,and people seems to forget about it and just say "Bu-but Masi".
Honestly this.. yeah the whole SC car situation was a mess, but ending behind the SC would also have been trash and equally rob Max of the opportunity to fight for the win, in the end I think it played out the best way possible, the only ones who can really complain are the cars who did not get to unlap themselves whilst their direct competitors did, like Ricciardo.. but he was P12 anyways, and they did not have a lot to fight for. Lewis should not have given up DRS to Perez and Mercedes should have not gambled with their tire strategy which always left them vulnerable to a safety car, and if that had happened a lap or 2 earlier they'd lose out in the same way.
@@Miragexe Masi had a hard choice there, the Red Flag at Baku left some people upset,the same with the one at Jeddah(between the red flag pitstops and the restart),Spa was a disaster for F1 and FIA between the waits and the SC Parade (probably the biggest disaster since Japan 2014 and Indy 2005), but there was no big issues with the SC at Qatar(I think that between Alonso's podium and the tyre drama, the SC wasn't an issue at all). From all possible scenarios, the SC in the way that got used in Qatar was the only way to finish the race(and the season) with minimum drama,but they poorly managed the time for everything (lapped cars could unlap themselves before and the 1 lap green made clear earlier,still drama,but not as big) and what we saw in Monza 2022 is an example of this,we got another SC Parade with a working crew right next to the cars,not exactly a good picture to look at(and worse thing in Japan, looking at Gasly's onboard).
This is what baffles me, they have a great driver in Checo. I understand that he's made a lot of mistakes and cost the team a lot more than just points this year, but it is just one year and the car isn't really to his liking. Replacing him, while it might be better for the team in the long run, as of right now, it is just like stabbing the man in the back. He isn't like Lance or Nikita.
But it isn't 1 year. Look at 2021 season. Redbull had the stronger car but perez consistently qualified outside the top 4 and rarely got on the podium. 2022 he lost p2 in the championship in the much faster redbull. He has like 3 good races a year. A driver needs 20 good races a year if you are at the top
@@SergeantAveryJohnson in 2022 RB was only dominant for half the season, ferrari was still the stronger car up to about hungary and that was clouded by horrible strategies and poor reliability from spain especially on charles's side. had charles not binned it in france and imola that p2 would've been his long before abu dhabi.
@@izzy3784 even after hungar chalres was consitently getting posiums whilst perez was wither on the podium or in p6 and p6 for some reason. 2022 was the only stand out ok season he had. 2021 was poor as cos of him redbull lost out on constructors and i dont need to explain this season. how if not for lewis dsq in USA ewis would be p2 in the championship. If another team catches up next season and is fighting with Max what good would it be to have a driver who can barely qualify inside the top 10. perez has had 8 podiums total this season same as fernado alonso in a much slower car
When his car was good he was challenging and beating max. But then magically his car was all off. They compromised him. Maybe newbies won't know but red bull has never been a 2 driver team. Their priority is with one driver and trying to make that one driver a superstar like Schumacher
@mrshab wtf are u talking abt? Both cars are the same, the car is made to be as quick as possible to drive. Max just gets more out of the car than Checo
I still always wonder if he made one final send at 3:12 since he was definitely close enough, if that would've been enough for Max to get a run on Lewis with DRS on the second straight. Could've panned out completely differently as ultimately Max was slower in S3 and lost DRS that same lap.
Say what all you want, Hamilton is the 2021 Champion in my eyes, He not only fought against Max for the championship but with other drivers as well especially Perez, Alonso & many more. All of these people would let Max pass them or wouldn't fight him but when it's Lewis the story is totally different. Everyone helped Max, these drivers, Race directors, Formula 1, & the whole FIA.
I am surprised that, after having made two such incredible defenses (Abu Dhabi and Turkey 2021) with a slightly inferior car and in a context of maximum tension, Checo was unable to identify that Alonso came out with better traction than him on the main straight during the last race in Brazil or that, if he had waited for the second DRS zone to overtake him on the penultimate lap, he would have reached the podium with a clearly better car
Different situations, in Abu Dhabi 2021 was Hamilton VS the 2 Red Bulls and the RB Pitwall,the whole team fighting for the driver championship while Bottas was left behind on his own (with a tired engine) and the Mercedes Pitwall doing nothing after the pitstop, Red Bull went all or nothing that night. In Brazil 2023, Perez had the side effects of Mexico, he got himself in a lot of pressure right in his home track, and did a dumb move in the first corner, loosing a massive amount of points of advantage over Hamilton. He went into "Safe mode" in Brazil,no unnecessary risks,he needed the points to keep P2 in the championship, maybe a bit too safe,but logical move at the end.(the same can be said about Tsunoda,that did the exactly same thing and got points).
@@0megalul309Hamilton takes multiple lines behind in dirty air to try and cool off tires but what you’re saying is he’s much more patient behind people and Alonso is much more likely to make a bolder move in weird places. Lewis always been super calculated but he definitely isn’t afraid to make a bold move if the moment arises
@@0megalul309Alonso was fighting for a mere podium on a straight, Hamilton was dealing with a car that was instructed to slow him down even at the cost of a crash, that happened to be the teammate of his title rival, in the final race he was easily winning due better pace
hamilton had the brazil engine that gave him all the advantage over the red bulls, especially verstappen who he prematurely destroyed his engine in silverstone@@12th_Carnival
After this race Checo was called "the minister of defense" With a VERY good reason. Those 12 seconds were crucial for the following Mercedes strategy blunders leading to loosing the race in the last lap (Mercedes wanted track position....2 times....during VSC and SC.......making Lewis a sitting duck) Also I remember Lewis was during this action on brand new tyres....Checo on the old since the start of the race which makes it even more incredible driving.
People forgot. Lewis backed up P1-P7 hoping Rosberg would be overtaken. Ultimately it failed and he was whining afterwards about how he lost. Couldn't even congratulate Nico properly.
How is it "no different"? Lewis didn't have to defend position versus Rosberg even once, whereas here Perez is deliberately blocking and weaving! Totally different.
I don't think Perez intentionally slowed for the DRS detection point. At 1:39 Hamilton does a slight lift as well. I think they were both trying to get maximum traction and Perez had wheel spin. Hamilton lost the championship because he was exactly 1% too good
Ooo the memories ... Lewis with a juiced up engine. Perez holding Lewis up like crazy. Latifi crashing (thank you👌🏻) Odd SC procedure by Masi (also thanks👌🏻) Last lap pass for the lead and race win. Damn! A season for the ages!!
@@Miragexethey didn’t he would’ve come out behind and considering maxes driving that season they probably wanted track position, and they rightly thought the race was gonna finish under safety car
@vladaltreilea1431 Max literally launched his car at Hamilton like had been doing the whole season. That's a poor short sighted argument to go by and Hamilton gave back the time anyways. Now lets talk about Brazil and SA...
@vladaltreilea1431 It didn't need further investigation because he gave the time back. Max didn't even deserve that time back because of that move. He knew a DNF for Hamilton would give him the championship, hence why he resulted to lowly dirty tactics to incite contact. Last 4 races from Hamilton was better than anything Max put out that season and it made Max crumble. In Brazil, Mercedes didn't even have the fastest top speed and they got penalized and corrected the wing. Try again.
That’s one of the reasons why I like red bull honda more than most teams, there is (usually) a good sense of team discipline and teamwork. Bottas > Russle
@@TheOrionNebula. That’s true and fair, so that is why I said “usually”. Max did not help his teammate Sergio in Brazil 2022, and i personally don’t like that because Sergio helped Max in Abu Dhabi 2021. However, I still believe that Red Bull Honda has superior teamwork to most teams- for example Singapore 2023. Sainz’s Ferarri teamed up with Norris’ McLaren because the other ferrari of leclerc was way too slow, meanwhile Russle refused to let Hamilton overtake despite being the slower driver in mercedes. Qatar 2023 shows merc teamwork in action.
i started casually watching f1 in 2020 but this 2021 season i was absolutely glued to my screen lol didn't realise how spoilt i had been with the 2021 season
That’s why sir Hamilton is the goat !!! He was fighting alone both redbulls but hey they needed a third guy to intervene to crown crashtappen a champion
Up to this day it’s still so painful to see this stuff as a Hamilton fan. It was a great strategy by Red Bull and it’s always a clap for that, but what the FIA did? You can’t tell me it wasn’t purposely.

Agreed, he was consistently within .5 of Max if I remember correctly
He seems to be struggling with the new gen car. Ever since Max beat him starting from ninth when Perez was on pole in Miami, it's just been one big downward spiral as I think all of his confidence he could challenge for a title was destroyed
Can't blame him for lacking motivation and enthusiasm when you see how he was treated after giving everything for the team
@@Baguenaudeur
Well..he gave them everything that he was hired for. He was clearly hired as a second driver to support Max winning the title. Would it have been better to just let him sit out of F1 like he was going to before they scooped him up?
@@Baguenaudeur mate what you on about Horner and the team has been nothing but supportive in what has been unacceptable form he's shown this season in that car. They've never publicly spoken against him and at every opportunity where media and fans alike have placed scrutiny over whether he'll have a seat for next season not once has the team said anything to make him feel like he's on his way out. His issues are his own doing, he was the one put pressure on himself by publicly declaring to the media he could challenge Max for the title. He underestimated Max's early struggles with the car and overestimated his own performance relative to Max. It turns out Checo's performance ceiling is much lower than Max's able to achieve which was obvious to anyone other than Checo.
All Checo had to do is keep getting podiums throughout the season, qualify in the front two rows and his seat would be his for as long as he kept delivering those performances. He had ambition beyond his own ability and Max as completely buried any idea of him ever challenging him for a title in the same car.
One of the best team works ever seen in F1, and probably the best ending to an F1 championship ever
yes that was best weam work
but ending was worst.
i'm not lewis fan also max hater
In a corrupt sport, yeah, the best ending

There was a race (I think Hungary) where Bottas let him pass for attack the driver in front of them, and after Lewis also didn't manage to pass, he gave the position back to Valtteri. I'm pretty sure Lewis would have let him pass for the points if Valtteri needed them.

Check his stats. He's consistently gotten better even if this year has been rough. So you clearly don't know what you're talking about.
His pace was shit during this race and during that whole season as well. Its just that this situation required him to be slow on purpose
When this is a drivers peak than you are not a good driver. Only to be a roadblock is not what checo wants to be remembered for...
It really isn't peak Perez - his first win for Racing Point, his amazing win for Red Bull at Singapore, or his tight win at Baku over Max are peak Perez. But this was definitely incredible defensive driving.
Just rewatched this race...goosebumps even now
I remember this defensive action very well. A little over the limit in my opinion, especially in the last sector where Checo literally parked the car in some corners. I think Max should always remember this moment when he is tempted to be a little harsh on his teammate. His first and most memorable WDC title came (also) thanks to this fantastic work by Perez.
There are rules and if you stay within them, nothing to complain about. Looks kind of ugly but it's fair and square. And yes Max should remember this.

Checo has so many skills - minister of defense, tire management, good team partner, manage his words on media etc. If provided a FAST CAR, but RB failed to do so for 2024*

Max was the one fighting for the WC so as a team member pretty obvious and true that Checo was ordered !!!!! to help Max

2. Checo was in a tight battle for p2 in the championship with Leclerc, which he ended up losing no doubt partly because of this

@@KJ28554 In your mind Spain, Imola and Brazil appear to be lucky escapes for Lewis not knowing that these F1 drivers have A LOT more awareness than you do. To you, they're like an algorithm running 1 million predictions each second and the closer they get to the corner the more scenarios they eliminate until they arrive at the turning-in point and they decide where to place the car relative to the opponent. Max shoved Lewis wide in Brazil but Hamilton saw it coming all the way, as it wasn't a drastic lock-up or anything. Lewis had plenty of time to avoid collision and Max wasn't worried about that too. Because, importantly, Max still turned the corner, he didn't just straight-line it. It looks more spectacular for the clueless fans, so stop projecting your overwhelmed mind onto the driver's abilities

Last five races of 2021 that Mercedes was absolutely flying
„Checo is a legend“
Legendary moments off this sport!
Perez will still go down as a legend in the history books for what he did in 2020 and 2021.
One of the best time wasting/defensive laps in F1 history. Have to say though at 3:15 I’m surprised Perez didn’t dive back down the inside to interfere even more with Hamilton.
I think RB told him something in the lines: "Whatever it takes EXCEPT contact". Perez played it extremely clean. Also, it would have been a career ending move if Perez somehow ended crashing into Ham to give Max the win. Look what happened to Masi and he didn't even do it on purpose.
@@anameyoucantremember I see your point but I don’t mean as a “take Hamilton out move” he could’ve legitimately carried on the fight and even got Max directly involved.
I've always wondered the same, but I think the radio message 'Max is right on his tail' made him think he had done enough. Had he made another move, he could have held Lewis at the apex to ensure Max got DRS on Lewis.
@@Goron333 I just have this image of Max getting past both of them and Hamilton still having to fight Perez. That would’ve been incredible.
Checo could see that Lewis was well past him and would take the apex, to under brake and put his car there would have caused a crash. Checo put up an incredible defence but everything he did upto that point was clean racing despite Lewis's whiny complaint about dangerous driving. To cause an intentional crash was a line Checo would have refused to cross. He did everything he could fairly and had he been a few metres further ahead I'm sure he would have parked on the apex, but he wasn't so he dropped back to do what he could for Max. What surprised me is that he didn't dab the brakes early in the straight to deny Lewis the DRS and give Max the earlier activation, potentially allowing him to get the 2nd from Lewis, but hindsight is a wonderful thing.
1:56 is some of the nastiest, meaniest pure filth defence ever. His use of track space is just brilliant
Not really there's only one line through the complex, barely enough room for two cars.
@@thomasconway95 When you're going that slow, there's never only one line.
3:13 nobody’s talking about how powerful that slipstream was. The last great show of aero.

Barrichello, Irvine, Massa no?
Bottas? No. Bro can’t defend for shit on track. He’s too nice
Im convinced if Bottas didnt take the piss in 2021 Lewis wouldve won the thing. It was 1 on 2 all year for Hamilton. Without a teamate youre always at a disatvantage strategy wise
3:14 you can hear Red Bull use it’s battery
I miss this checo ):
This Video was better then f1 postrace production
3:13 here is the perfect example of slipstream effect. Listen to the engine reving as Checo crosses inside Lewis slipstream and gives him a few extra kph
Never seen the effect so instantaneous before.
Such fond memories, Toto crying to Masi was my favourite part of that season.....
Currently on the grid only Perez and Alonso can play defence like this clean
And that's why they're so enjoy in Brazil
Clean? Okay
This is one of the dirtiest examples of driving I've seen go unpunished in modern F1. He had no intention to race Hamilton for position and was only forcing him to avoid crashing every corner. If you want to see clean, look at Alonso in Hungary.

2 years later max: "i gave u my reasons, Blablablablabla"
Great overview of this critical moment in Maxs career...its no wonder RB have given Checo alot of leeway considering his second half performance this year 😅
I really want to see Lawson doing that
Between the time lost with Perez and Mercedes doing a Ferrari during Giovinazzi's VSC (Hamilton telling them that was dangerous to keep him on track, and Bono response was a simple"we want to keep track position", Bono released his inner Xavi), Hamilton was on alone and on his own against a team that used everything at hand, every pit window and both drivers if possible.
And as the cherry on top,just like in France that very same year, Bottas reaction to Hamilton loosing the race was "this was a 2 pitstop race",they got Ferrari treatment,and people seems to forget about it and just say "Bu-but Masi".
Honestly this.. yeah the whole SC car situation was a mess, but ending behind the SC would also have been trash and equally rob Max of the opportunity to fight for the win, in the end I think it played out the best way possible, the only ones who can really complain are the cars who did not get to unlap themselves whilst their direct competitors did, like Ricciardo.. but he was P12 anyways, and they did not have a lot to fight for.
Lewis should not have given up DRS to Perez and Mercedes should have not gambled with their tire strategy which always left them vulnerable to a safety car, and if that had happened a lap or 2 earlier they'd lose out in the same way.
@@Miragexe Masi had a hard choice there, the Red Flag at Baku left some people upset,the same with the one at Jeddah(between the red flag pitstops and the restart),Spa was a disaster for F1 and FIA between the waits and the SC Parade (probably the biggest disaster since Japan 2014 and Indy 2005), but there was no big issues with the SC at Qatar(I think that between Alonso's podium and the tyre drama, the SC wasn't an issue at all).
From all possible scenarios, the SC in the way that got used in Qatar was the only way to finish the race(and the season) with minimum drama,but they poorly managed the time for everything (lapped cars could unlap themselves before and the 1 lap green made clear earlier,still drama,but not as big) and what we saw in Monza 2022 is an example of this,we got another SC Parade with a working crew right next to the cars,not exactly a good picture to look at(and worse thing in Japan, looking at Gasly's onboard).
2021: Perez is so slow 😄
2024: Perez is so slow 💀
The team failed him
I miss this perez
Wow that was epic 🫡 Great job Checo
This is what baffles me, they have a great driver in Checo. I understand that he's made a lot of mistakes and cost the team a lot more than just points this year, but it is just one year and the car isn't really to his liking. Replacing him, while it might be better for the team in the long run, as of right now, it is just like stabbing the man in the back. He isn't like Lance or Nikita.
But it isn't 1 year. Look at 2021 season. Redbull had the stronger car but perez consistently qualified outside the top 4 and rarely got on the podium. 2022 he lost p2 in the championship in the much faster redbull. He has like 3 good races a year. A driver needs 20 good races a year if you are at the top
@@SergeantAveryJohnson in 2022 RB was only dominant for half the season, ferrari was still the stronger car up to about hungary and that was clouded by horrible strategies and poor reliability from spain especially on charles's side. had charles not binned it in france and imola that p2 would've been his long before abu dhabi.
@@izzy3784 even after hungar chalres was consitently getting posiums whilst perez was wither on the podium or in p6 and p6 for some reason. 2022 was the only stand out ok season he had. 2021 was poor as cos of him redbull lost out on constructors and i dont need to explain this season. how if not for lewis dsq in USA ewis would be p2 in the championship. If another team catches up next season and is fighting with Max what good would it be to have a driver who can barely qualify inside the top 10. perez has had 8 podiums total this season same as fernado alonso in a much slower car
When his car was good he was challenging and beating max. But then magically his car was all off. They compromised him.
Maybe newbies won't know but red bull has never been a 2 driver team. Their priority is with one driver and trying to make that one driver a superstar like Schumacher
@mrshab wtf are u talking abt? Both cars are the same, the car is made to be as quick as possible to drive. Max just gets more out of the car than Checo
Somehow reminded me of LHM & Rosberg's fight on the same track where LHM was slowing down massively ... here he got the taste of his own medicine :-(
The mexican minister of deffense 👌🏼🇲🇽
I still always wonder if he made one final send at 3:12 since he was definitely close enough, if that would've been enough for Max to get a run on Lewis with DRS on the second straight. Could've panned out completely differently as ultimately Max was slower in S3 and lost DRS that same lap.
Can't imagine how it must have been to drive behind this guy on this day... Absolute wall.
bro fire content, and u dont even got enough subs for it. u deserve millions
Checo seems to have dropped alot from this to future.
This video is about 2 years late but still thank you for your effort!
He put out this video after last year's Brazil fiasco. Bro used the exact same video and didn't even change the 'safty' typo. Still, great content 👍
Say what all you want, Hamilton is the 2021 Champion in my eyes, He not only fought against Max for the championship but with other drivers as well especially Perez, Alonso & many more. All of these people would let Max pass them or wouldn't fight him but when it's Lewis the story is totally different. Everyone helped Max, these drivers, Race directors, Formula 1, & the whole FIA.
No matter his performance now, I’d never bad mouth him for his driving
I am surprised that, after having made two such incredible defenses (Abu Dhabi and Turkey 2021) with a slightly inferior car and in a context of maximum tension, Checo was unable to identify that Alonso came out with better traction than him on the main straight during the last race in Brazil or that, if he had waited for the second DRS zone to overtake him on the penultimate lap, he would have reached the podium with a clearly better car
Alonso takes different lines. Hamilton sticks to one line and hopes you make a mistake or he would just shunt you out like he did to Albon and rosberg
Different situations, in Abu Dhabi 2021 was Hamilton VS the 2 Red Bulls and the RB Pitwall,the whole team fighting for the driver championship while Bottas was left behind on his own (with a tired engine) and the Mercedes Pitwall doing nothing after the pitstop, Red Bull went all or nothing that night.
In Brazil 2023, Perez had the side effects of Mexico, he got himself in a lot of pressure right in his home track, and did a dumb move in the first corner, loosing a massive amount of points of advantage over Hamilton. He went into "Safe mode" in Brazil,no unnecessary risks,he needed the points to keep P2 in the championship, maybe a bit too safe,but logical move at the end.(the same can be said about Tsunoda,that did the exactly same thing and got points).
@@0megalul309Hamilton takes multiple lines behind in dirty air to try and cool off tires but what you’re saying is he’s much more patient behind people and Alonso is much more likely to make a bolder move in weird places.

@@MiragexeLewis was fighting for WDC in 2017 yet still gave back the position to bottas as he promised. Max promised and then broke his promise 🤡
After this race Checo was called "the minister of defense" With a VERY good reason.
Those 12 seconds were crucial for the following Mercedes strategy blunders leading to loosing the race in the last lap (Mercedes wanted track position....2 times....during VSC and SC.......making Lewis a sitting duck)
Also I remember Lewis was during this action on brand new tyres....Checo on the old since the start of the race which makes it even more incredible driving.
When you realize how good Checo was... What a top IQ moment by him!
I hope this Checo come back someday...

I don't think Perez intentionally slowed for the DRS detection point. At 1:39 Hamilton does a slight lift as well. I think they were both trying to get maximum traction and Perez had wheel spin. Hamilton lost the championship because he was exactly 1% too good

@vladaltreilea1431 It didn't need further investigation because he gave the time back. Max didn't even deserve that time back because of that move. He knew a DNF for Hamilton would give him the championship, hence why he resulted to lowly dirty tactics to incite contact. Last 4 races from Hamilton was better than anything Max put out that season and it made Max crumble.
In Brazil, Mercedes didn't even have the fastest top speed and they got penalized and corrected the wing. Try again.
